KAKVI DA BUDEMO I KAKO DA DELUJEMO KAO GEŠTALT TERAPEUTI I GRAĐANI U VREME POLITIČKE KRIZE
NO MORE TIME TO WORRY! IT´S TIME TO ACT! WHAT TO DO AGAINST THIS GROWING POPULARITY OF THE MEGASHIT OF ERDOGANISM, TRUMPISM, LEPENISM AND CO?

Summary/Abstract: By Gestalt Therapy, from Perls and Goodman, Buber, Rank and others we learned to enrich our Self and that of others with enhanced awareness, empathy, openness, to enjoy diversity and the care for our future and nature. We dream to create a multi - cultural world without borders, with respect of differences, solidarity and peace.Now The Shock! Almost overnight an increase of our fellow citizen got infected by believing in fake leaders,willed to destroy the liberal spirit of post-modernism, the hopes of perestroika and the efforts of courageousness engaged for a world of shared responsibility. How could this happen?What does this mean for us? How can we guide our client through their worries about our cultural- political future? How can we prevent people to lose trust in an open positive worldview? How could we encourage them not to dismiss their self- confidence? How can we discourage people to project their hopes and power for better life conditions onto obvious criminal liar, who will for sure betray their hope and fragile self-esteem even more?Goodman taught us, to change strong opinion can emerge at best though new experience. What would this be?How do we creatively adjust our way and focus of practicing Gestalt therapy to this inescapable challenge of our time? Do we still do the best to support our clients and co-citizen to explore their senses, to experiences more their feelings, needs, lacks and individual possibilities? Is it still right to enable our client to accept themselves as they are in order to change? How could we encourage our client to experience themselves as creative, self –confident and strong willed heroes, with a solid yet open worldview, which will be even in times of individual and social crises immune against glib populist.
